Silkworm/Bombyx Mori explained. From Silkworm Eggs To Silk. How to make silk at home. Raising silkworms, the mulberry silkworm, bombyx mori, where to buy silkworms all included.

I have always been interested in making silk at home. This book has provided me with everything I need to know to get started. Great read.

Now let us see if the school children find it useful.

I was disapointed in this book. I was looking for a book on raising silk worms at home and how to process the silk for use. The title is highly misleading. The book does NOT cover silkworms it deals EXCLUSIVELY with 'Bombyx Mori' which feeds only on the leaves of the mulberry tree. I know that there are other silk worms that can be fed on our native bushes and trees but did not know which silk moths and which trees. It seams that the author did not either.

Very informative book.
